Story

The Advent's musical tradition has been renowned for generations. Drawing on the resources of a region rich in world-class musicians, the choirs offer a varied repertoire performed to the highest standards, supported by the historic Aeolian-Skinner organ, a landmark of the American Classic Style.

The Choir of the Church of the Advent sings at the 11:15 Solemn Mass on Sundays, Lessons & Carols for Advent and Christmas, the evening services of Holy Week, and programs a concert every spring. The Choir has issued numerous recordings on the Arsis label. The Parish Choir, volunteers drawn from the Advent community, sings at the 9am Mass on Sundays from late September through Trinity Sunday, among other dates. The Advent's Aeolian-Skinner organ (Opus 940, 1936) is one of the most celebrated church organs in the world.
